"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

So, I'm gonna get back on the dating apps.

I've heard good (ish) things about Hinge? thoughts from experience?

I'm a little rusty. Recently single. You guys have any tips/links writing a reasonably solid bio?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I used Tinder. I don’t think bio makes a big difference unless you put something unsettling in it. My ex-, who I met on Tinder told me she went on a date with a guy from Tinder she didn’t find attractive. But. she liked his bio. When they met up. She told him:’no kissing. No sex.’. He still took her out to dinner & a ballgame.

Every word you write in your bio you are signaling.
Just like in real life, women will judge the words that come out of your mouth.
-Verbal intelligence is displayed in your bio.

In your bio be honest.
If you are 5”9 don’t put you are 6 foot
-If you lie about your height she will think what else you lied about in your bio.

Make sure your bio shows what you care about,
-your intelligent (career)
-your empathetic (you have nieces, nephews, a dog)
-your passions (CrossFit, volunteer big brother)
-your ambitions (working towards insert a goal)

Don’t brag,
It’s better if she finds for herself later on you have a vintage voltswagon split window bus in mint condition and land with horses, a garage full of soccer trophies, etc

This a guideline, think for yourself.
